Here are all the permutations you need to know before tomorrow’s Continental Cup matchday 5
Group 3
Bristol Academy 9 pts 10-5
They are currently in third place in the group and will need to see if they finish as one of the best third placed team.
Yeovil Town 6 pts 4-8 away to Notts County
They need to win by 9 goals or more to overtake Bristol to get into third place
Group 1
Chelsea Ladies 9 pts 12-4 home to London Bees
They need a point to qualify in second place.
Should they loose, they will end up with 9 pts and a goal difference of 8- x and could be overtaken by Reading and/or Millwall if those teams win by a large margin.
Reading Women 6 pts 9-6 away to Watford Ladies
Currently in third place they need to match Millwall’s result to finish third, then will need to finish in the top two third placed teams. With the group 3 team already on 9 points and a minimum of +5 goal difference, a win is likely to be necessary.
Should Chelsea loose they need to catch up on the Blues’ goal difference while Millwall does not catch up as well.
Millwall Lionesses 6 pts 10-14 home to Arsenal Ladies
Currently in fourth place they need to win against Arsenal and catch up on Chelsea’s goal difference should Chelsea loose and should Reading beat Watford on the Royals as well.
Group 2
Doncaster and Sunderland are both on 6 pts and 8-8 on goal difference and will play each other.
The team that loses the game will be eliminated, if it is a draw both side will finish with 7 pts and to have a chance to qualify in that case they will need the Group 1 third place team to finish with 6 pts or with 7 pts and a negative goal difference ie Millwall.
If there is a winner, that team will reach 9 pts matching the Group 3 third placed team and again it will depend on the Group 1 third placed team’s points and goal difference.
Teams qualifying prediction:
Chelsea 98 % chances
Reading 65%
Bristol 65%
Sunderland 40%
Doncaster 30%
Millwall 1% chances
Yeovil 1% chances
